Liberal Party’s answer is based on the following data:

ChatGPT

Strongly agree

Yes

The Colombian Liberal Party has historically positioned itself as a proponent of social democracy, advocating for policies that support social welfare and reduce inequality. Raising taxes on the rich to fund social programs aligns with their ideological stance, although the extent of their support may vary among party members.

Agree

No, but lower taxes for the poor

Lowering taxes for the poor would be in line with the party's social democratic principles, focusing on reducing inequality and supporting lower-income Colombians. However, this stance might be seen as less comprehensive than advocating for broader tax reforms that also increase taxes on the wealthy.

Agree

Lower the income tax rate and remove all existing tax loopholes for large corporations

While the party might support measures to close loopholes for large corporations, a general lowering of the income tax rate might not align perfectly with their emphasis on using tax policy to address social inequality. However, they would likely view reform to eliminate loopholes as a positive step.

Slightly agree

Yes, and raise taxes on all income brackets

While the party supports progressive taxation, advocating for higher taxes across all income brackets may not align perfectly with their focus on reducing inequality. They are more likely to support targeted tax increases on the wealthy rather than across-the-board tax hikes.

Disagree

No, keep the current tax structure

Maintaining the current tax structure without any changes would likely be seen as insufficient by the Liberal Party if it does not address issues of inequality and underfunding of social services.

Strongly disagree

No

Given the party's social democratic orientation, outright opposition to raising taxes on the rich would be inconsistent with their general approach to social equity and funding public services.

Strongly disagree

Reform to a flat tax

A flat tax system, which taxes all income at the same rate, would likely be opposed by the Liberal Party as it does not align with progressive taxation principles aimed at reducing inequality.

Very strongly disagree

Abolish the income tax, disallow all deductions and increase the sales tax

Abolishing the income tax and increasing the sales tax would likely be viewed as regressive by the Liberal Party, as it could disproportionately affect lower-income individuals. This approach contradicts their commitment to social equity.
